IG Frontier Corps Major General Obaidullah Khan

Frontier Corps Inspector General Maj Gen Obaidullah Khan has said extraordinary measures have been taken to repulse any aggression at the borders along Afghanistan.

“After the NATO attack on Pakistani post in Mohmand, the FC has reviewed security at border areas and the troops are ready to respond to any aggression”, he said.

He said 262 NATO vehicles were stranded in different parts of Balochistan after the supplies to allied forces were halted. Following the attack on NATO vehicles in Quetta, it has been decided to send back NATO vehicles to Karachi, he said, adding that the attacks on NATO vehicles were tarnishing the image of the country.

About law and order, he said that the FC was making all-out efforts to restore peace to the province by crushing the anti-Pakistan, Indian funded elements. Laying stress on dialogue to resolve the Balochistan issue, Maj Gen Obaidullah said the issue was political and it should be resolved through political means if the Political administration show some interest to work on the real issues.

He condemned the killing of 14 FC personnel, including a Major, in Mushakhel district, saying that the FC personnel were performing security duty in the area when they were targeted. He vowed to bring culprits to book.

About the recovery of decomposed bodies, he said that this is just a propaganda campaign by our enemies to damage the repute of FC by alleging them of abducting people and killing them, these are done none other but the anti-Pakistan elements. He also said that the hue and cry of Human Rights activists and media over the missing persons is baseless and 99% of the people gone missing are working for Militant organizations. The inspector general stressed that the media should also highlight the killing of security personnel by militants.

He said recruitment quota for Baloch people in FC had been increased to 20 per cent and the FC was running 33 schools and colleges in different parts of the province to impart education to the people.

He said the FC was deployed in different parts of the province on the requisition of the provincial government and added that over past six months, the FC was not being issued allowance by the provincial government. He appealed to the people of Balochistan to come forward and play their role in maintaining peace across the province.

To a question, he said foreign elements were involved in the suicide attack on FC DIG’s convoy.

Referring to the recent statement of Nawabzada Bramdagh Bugti wherein he had disassociated himself from armed struggle in Balochistan, the FC inspector general said that Bramdagh Bugti issued the remarks on the directives of some quarters so that he could get political asylum in some Western country as the situation in Afghanistan is not suitable for anymore and he has no hold here in Balochistan after the measures taken by FC.
